I posted about it for people to read as another possibility to consider if they are having anxiety/fear that is totally irrational, not explainable and not responding to any meds. The central nervous system is not meant to have bacteria in it. When it does, bizarre things happen! Maybe I should have included this part in my original post.

Yes, I do have GAD like many but it is not health-related. The root of that is an emotional trauma from 6 years ago. Haven't been the same since that happened.
I got it. Sorry i shouldnt have been so presumptuous. I actually stopped short of reading your complete message coz i get triggered easily by health concerns. Thank you for posting about your experience. People oughta be able to consider all possibilities that could be a cause.
